… the Palmdale Cutoff bears a north-south magnitude. Either, he was going southbound, or northbound. There is no westbound magnitude, for Angeles Forest Hwy –

My heart goes out to his family. He was there for our family when my Dad got sick and passed away in 1988. A good man. May he rest in peace and may God comfort his family.

Could be worse. There have been people who went off the other side and down the mountain who just disappeared, only to be found by some “lucky” hiker months or years later. At least this guy’s family knows what became of him.
Sorry for your loss.
